An Antiques Roadshow guest was left declaring 'you're joking' as he was given a jaw-dropping valuation for his valued treasures. Fiona Bruce and the team were at Powis Castle in Wales for the new episode of the BBC One programme which aired on Sunday night (April 2).
Among those heading to take their items to be valued was an Antarctic explorer who was left gobsmacked when expert Mark Smith told him how much his own medal was worth after originally hoping to receive a valuation for his father's medal collection.
He had brought along a medal collection belonging to his father, Kevin Walton, that included an Albert Medal for Lifesaving, which has since been replaced by the George Cross, the Mirror reports.

"You don't see medals like this, who was this man?" Mark asked. "He was my dad, I'm choking up now. He passed away 13 years ago, remarkable man," the guest replied.
The collection also included a Distinguished Service Medal, an Antarctic exploration medal, with the Queen's commendation for brave conduct, and the medal for the island of Malta, given to those who were involved in the liberation of Malta, amongst others.
And while amazed by the collection as a whole, Mark ended up turning his attention to a medal that belonged to the guest himself, who explained he had followed in his father's footsteps.
"When I got presented with that in May 1986 we were the only father and son, as far as I know, to hold the polar medal and I worked for the Antarctic studying ice, studying climate change for a number of years and someone along the line somebody must have thought I'd done a good job," the guest revealed.

Brian Steinberg Senior TV Editor Showing off your late-night hosting skills when you have just four days to do so can be daunting. So Kal Penn brought his ‘A’ game. The actor used his unique connections to the White House — he was an associate director of the White House Office of Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs during the Obama administration — to deliver a hard-to-get booking to Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show.” When Penn recently guest-hosted the program, his first night featured a sit-down with President Joe Biden.

Biden also offered about his views on same-sex marriage and the treatment of transgender children, among other topics.
